Oregon Weekly Hay Report

  Compared to Sep 28:  Prices trended generally steady compared to last 
week prices.  Retail/Stable type hay remains the most demanded hay.  
Demand for export hay has decreased since last report.  Due to deer 
hunting season this past weekend and this week, many contacts were difficult
to get ahold of.  All sales in this report are 2018 crop year hay, unless 
noted by Old Crop.
